staging: comedi: remove 'comedi_autoconfig' module parameter

This module parameter is used to enable the auto config mechanism
in the comedi core. Most of the PCI, PCMCIA, and USB drivers have
been converted to use the auto config mechanism and will not attach
if it is disabled.

Since the 'comedi_autoconfig' parameter is defaulted to true, just
remove it so that the comedi drivers that use auto config will
always be able to attach.
